Testcase:

class Test:
    public static final X = 1

    static def constructor():
        X = 2

print Test.X #prints 1 ... or crash

static final with a literal initializer sets the IL flag 'literal'.
Two solutions:
1) forbidding assignment of static final field, even in static constructor
2) implicitely change IL flag to 'initonly' ... but it can be unwanted behavior

I'd take 1, objections?
edit: changed my mind to 2, it makes thing more consistent with the 'instance final' and non-literal types.
